In my view the UN's instant therapeutic victory is there for its taking in my native country Nigeria. Nigeria, like Iraq, is notorious for her mass production of the Weapons of Mass Distraction (WMD). ...sabotaging Nigeria's democracy...and endangering the lives of our innocent compatriots.

But it is wonderful that the North did come back again to seek the hands of its long abandoned traditional bride, the East. After its botched brief marriage with the only Yoruba man it thought it could manage as a bride, the North decided to reach out and reconcile with its estranged wife, the East. Isn't that amazing?

Nigeria's ban on foreign news broadcasts drew instant condemnation from Nigerians and civil rights activists across the world. Many saw it as an indication of the return of political repression in Nigeria. I personally saw it as the clearest indication yet that Nigerian democracy is in a deep hole.

People have speculated and reasonably too that the only reason why these killings have continued to skyrocket, and the only reason why those behind them are not being outed and prosecuted, was because President Obasanjo's PDP government knew something about them and perhaps approved some of them.

If facts that emerged last week were any thing to go by, the larger portion of the problems in Nigerian security belongs entirely to the Nigerian police and their leadership. Yet the Nigeria Police Force is one of those agencies being headed by a new-age professional in the Obasanjo administration. URL:http://nigeriaworld.com/columnist/ihenacho/032204.html

Ekwueme and Fawehinmi are the two people who could outclass Obasanjo in every way conceivable. But if they are not going to run... the best possible option for the unity and welfare of Nigeria is of course a popular endorsement and re-election of the incumbent president. Those other candidates can only excite empty excitement and stupid euphoria. URL:http://nigeriaworld.com/columnist/ihenacho/031602.html

No matter the level of diligence taken by any electoral body in Nigeria, our elections will continue to feature a high level of experimentation for a long time to come. But to excuse contrived errors and illegalities in the name of experimentation is both unconstitutional and immoral. URL:http://nigeriaworld.com/columnist/ihenacho/040803.html

...I believe that what President Bush seems hell-bent on doing in Iraq is so revolutionary that it might lead to the annulment of several centuries of gains in international alliances and cooperation that have been nurturing and holding our clay-pot planet together.

They seem not to have any idea of the true nature of Nigeria. They have in their mind a Nigeria cast in the image of Iran, Iraq and Saudi Arabia. That Nigeria is not yet born. It may eventually be given birth to whenever the twelve Sharia States decide to bond together and form their own country. That will be a win-win situation for both them and us.
